Summary
"Thomas Barrow is accustomed to feeling unwanted.
It is an uncomfortable, prickly feeling, made up of a thousand tiny sensations: a disapproving glare; a cruel snicker following a joke at his expense; a conversation stuttering to an awkward halt as he enters the room; a sigh of relief when he walks away.
He used to find a kind of vindictive joy in it, savoured the powerful feeling of being able to ruin someone’s day just by existing. He was a rock in the ocean, letting the waves wash over him, unconcerned by the water’s petty attempts to wear him down.
He forgot that even the strongest rock cannot withstand the ocean forever."
Starts somewhere in Season 6 and covers some of the events from both films, but takes a very loose approach to canon. Thomas' journey to realising that he doesn't have to be unwanted forever.
Includes references to canon-typical homophobia and Thomas' suicide attempt, but not described in detail.

When James was nine, Lily Evans broke his heart.
Fifteen years later, she reappeared in his life, just as beautiful and vibrant and unattainable as ever. This time, James was determined not to screw things up. As long as she didn't hate him anymore, he was happy with just being her friend.
That is, until he somehow found himself agreeing to be her fake date to her sister's wedding.
What on earth was he getting himself into?

Summary
In which Arthur completely breaks character by being somewhat observant.
Not explicitly romantic but could be read as pre-Arthur/Merlin
